Quran Chapter 6 – 116 (Pt-8, Stg-2) (L-876) - درس قرآن

Refuge from going astray

Surah ‘Al-‘An-‘aam (Cattle) – Chapter – 6)

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim. 
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

A formula for passing a successful life in this world has been signified in this verse for the Muslims. If the believers will act upon this formula, neither will they ever fail and nor go astray from the Straight Path. This Speech is for the Messenger of God Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him), whereas the lesson, hidden in it, is being taught to the entire nation.
                                            
This is such lesson, which will be a firm Code of Life for the Muslims in each condition and time till the Day of Judgment. If ever, they left acting upon it (God forbid), then they will live nowhere and their national existence will be wiped out like invalid character. It can be understood clearly from this verse that the Muslims should never turn away even a hair’s breadth from SabiiLillaah i.e. the Path of God Almighty.

It is necessary for every Muslim to understand first that the mankind is a passenger in the world. Coming in the world means that the human being has stood out from his home and native country. Now he has to finish this journey by way destination. The end of this journey is “Death”Death means; it is the end of this world’s journey and the mankind has arrived at his abodeFrom birth to death, he has to cross over a very long and wide field. The name of this field is ‘the world’. After death, he will enter in his home country. Name of that home country is “the Doomsday, the next world”. At first, he will have to pass through the stages of “the Grave, the General Resurrection, the Lamentation, reckoning of Accounts, crossing the Bridge over which the righteous will pass to Heaven, and the sinner and evildoer will drop down into the Fire of Hell” . Then he will reach his home, which will be either Paradise or Hell. The Paradise is the place of comfort, whereas the Hell is the place of restlessness.

If the human being desires to reach direct to the Paradise, then a Path has been fixed for him in the world. This Path has been showed by Allah Almighty and for its acquaintance; He has sent His Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) with His last Word “Holy Qur’an”. The meaning of going astray from this Path is that the mankind left the Straight Path and entered into the dark forest. Now he doesn’t know; whether he will die; being entangled in the thorny bushes and trees or in any marsh, and what will happen with him in the next stages of death, and what will be exposed to imminent danger in the Hell.

The Straight Path is called “Siraatal-Mustaqiim, SiraatAllaah and Siraatul-‘Ambi-yaa (the Path of Prophets – peace be upon Them)”. Who will escape in the world from swamps, abysses and confusions, will be easy at the time of death, the stages of general resurrection will be finalized easily, and a ready-made, comfortable home will be handed over in the Paradise duly prepared in all respect for living.

This Path can be chosen only by acting upon the Revelations of Noble Qur’an. There are many enemies of the human being, who call towards fulfilling of the worldly desires without any resistance to seduce him/her. Whereas; Holy Qur’an commands: Do in accord with My Instructions by giving up your own wishes. Stop there, wherever I prevent you.

Actual enemy of the humankind is Satan (the Devil), who calls them towards the worldly desires to be fulfilled unchecked, and maximum people of the world follow Satan leavingQur’an. Therefore, the Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him) has been guided in this verse including the entire human beings and particularly Muslim Nation by means of Him, that there are sufficient devils in the world. You should hold the Noble Qur’an fast and obey not the devils.
